🎬 Welcome to the Casual Creative Round-Up! A peek behind the curtain at our creative process as we explore the latest work and trends in film, advertising, design, and animation that have caught our eye…👀✨

📢 There’s something in the agency water, with two OOH campaigns built almost entirely on brand recognition for Kellogg’s and Heinz. If we had to pick a winner, Heinz takes it by a nose - there’s something deeply gratifying about recognizing tinned tomato soup with barely any context.

🎞️ We love the animation style in this moving short film for the SAFE Project, raising awareness around alcohol misuse during the winter months. The song choice is perfect, and the nostalgic, handmade look adds real emotional depth to the story.

💃 We might be showing our age, but we’re equal parts baffled and delighted to see IKEA resurrect the Harlem Shake. Who knows, maybe a dose of 2013 meme culture is exactly what we all need right now 🤷‍♂️🎶

🌞 Enjoyed this unhinged spot for Aussie suncream brand Slather. It’s one of those commercials where we’d love to be a fly on the wall for the pitch meetings. Proof how even the most bizarre ideas come together when everyone commits.

🧑‍🍳 Speaking of leaning in, Koto Studio has created a series of 70s cookbook-inspired branding guides, and they’re so fun. The attention to detail really makes it - from being able to change the channel on the landing page, to the hand-drawn scribbles on the cookbook guides. The mix of retro with more modern 3D animation and UI makes it both incredibly joyous as well as a genuinely useful resource. We’re big fans! 👏

Our Story

Casual Films produces corporate and brand video for multinational businesses. Working globally, we support companies like BMW, GoDaddy, Facebook, Marriott, PwC, RedBull and Vodafone in communicating with video.

In 2006, our co-founders Barnaby Cook and Nick Francis took part in an old car rally from London to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia. They produced 15 diary films on the journey for Expedia. Working with just a camcorder and a laptop, they realized they were at the leading edge of the video production revolution.

That lightweight, high-quality approach won significant awards, new staff, and followers. Casual was voted number one corporate production company in the UK, by our peers, for three years running. To date, we have produced nearly 10,000 films – continually honing our proprietary production process.

Building on these successes in the UK, Casual Films opened in New York in 2011. Our formula worked well in the US; the business grew significantly over the following years. The San Francisco office opened in 2017 and with Los Angeles following in early 2019. We were even recognized by a Board of Trade Award in 2018 for services to transatlantic commerce.
